SwinDent-Seg: Hybrid Swin transformer-CNN with cross-scale feature fusion for automated detection and segmentation of dental pathologies in panoramic radiographs.
BACKGROUND Automatic detection and segmentation of dental diseases from panoramic x-ray images have been a difficult task to achieve due to the problems of class imbalance and varying sizes of lesions, as well as the inconspicuous nature of early caries. This paper introduces SwinDent-Seg, which is a hybrid architectur...
